Ajay Devgn Films (ADF), through their lawyers Naik & Naik have served Yash Raj Films (YRF) a notice in the Competition Commission, for using their dominant position in the Bollywood film market. And, using and abusing their clout to deny ADF their rightful due, for ADF’s November 13 Diwali release, “Son Of Sardaar”.
Our sources indicate that the notice was filed on October 18, three days prior to Yash Chopra’s demise. But it was apparently served to YRF only last evening.The source says, “ADF was forced to take legal recourse because of monopolistic practices of YRF. Before the release of “Ek Tha Tiger”, in August 2012, YRF had reportedly used their dominant position in the market to enter into an arrangement with the exhibitors saying that they will give them”Ek Tha Tiger” only if the exhibitors agreed to reportedly give theirDiwali release prominence over others.”
Ajay remained unavailable for comment. A copy of the notice is with us. And”Son Of Sardaar” is definitely releasing on November 13, this Diwali.
